I am sure Telangana will be a reality .

Though SKC was rejected by Telangana,it gave enough support for Samaikhyavaadis (rather pseudo).

With Chiru's help congress may dare Jagan and save the government.

At the movement he appears not against Telangana (at least does not talk so). But he can utIlize the division for his favour.

There are no explicit feelers from TDP/Cong leaders from Samaikhyandhra.

Sonia ghandi cannot risk another 'grandstand' of overnight decision.

They must consult Samaikhyandhra leaders (of parties) to generate the opinion.

Otherwise either TDP or Jagan take advantage in Samaikhyandhra.


Look from TDP's view point. It is MADE loser in Telangana.

Do not forget one important things TDP leaders in any region are left with very little choice.

Invariably congress is a sinking ship so they cannot jump into it.

In Telangana they have option of joining TRS but unlikely owing to 'varga poratam'.

I'm looking forward to having a relatively exciting weekend. I have big plans, so it will be nice just to hang out at office.

I got over my jet lag by about Thursday this week. It wasn't too bad, I was waking up at night, but not for very long. Mainly, I just got really tired in the afternoons.

I skipped my workout on Monday since I was so tired, but I stayed on track after that. I felt terrible on my bike Tuesday night, but I rode anyway. Wednesday and Thursday were strength workouts, and those both felt really good. My legs are feeling a little worked over right now, but otherwise, I'm feeling good to be back into a little bit of a routine.

Overview
Agriculture is the backbone of the Indian Economy as nearly 60% of the
population of the country depend on agriculture and contribute 23% to the GDP.
Tenth Five Year Plan and National Agriculture Policy documents envisage a
growth level of 4% in Agriculture as against the average growth of less than 2%
in the last 50 years. The last decade commencing from 1990s was marked by
post-Green Revolution fatigue and plateauing yield levels in many parts of the
country. For sustained 4% growth in agriculture there is need to improve
productivity and cut down on costs by improving efficiency.
